The I'hysicianM Prolialy Kept Iii nuti King hidwari from l)ying. Atlanta Constilution. I don't know whether I can write a letter or not. I will ry. The effort will keep ne from thinking about my self. For a month L have been play ing " Billy in the low grounds," but I had a good doctor who has nursed mne night and day and cheered mc up and comforted me and I am on the up grade, though as the (eorgia crackers say, 'I am powerful weak." Tis doctor is my son and he says he has not forgot ten how his mother and I nursed him for three long months in Florida and saved his life, and now I shall not lie if ho can help it. I take all his medi cine, quinine, strychnine, calonml, spirits of nitre and capsules without number, and tonics, too, and if I get well I will never know what cured me, but he will. What would the world do without doctors? Iiing l dward and I would have (ied last week. About twenty years ago 1 had a spell like this one, for I had been working in the water all day. trying to (lain up the branch in the meadow so that the children could go in bathing. That night I liked to have died, and old I)r. Kirk was sent for and worked on ine for three or four (lays and got me up again. My wife told ime then that if I didn't be more careful of myself I wouldn't live out half my days. She told me the same thing the other day, and she knows. Old l)r. Kirk is a trump. lie was our fami'y doctui until he got old and tire- ' ii(L moved away to live with his child''. liefore he moved to this place . South Carolina he had a love -e over there, and he had a rival, id they fell out. The girl woul(ln a either one of them and the other 1el,w heard that the doctor had told stories on him to the girl, and so after the doctor lo cated here his rival wrote to him and demanded a retraxit or else a light. The doctor wrote him a stinger and re fused to make a retraxit, but would ac cj'pt his challenge and light him until Hades froze over, and as the lighting code gave the challenged party choice of weapons and time and place and distance he should choose rifles at long range and the next 29th day of Feb ruary as the timie, and the other fellow must stay where lie was and shoot over this way and ho (the doctor) would stay here and shoot over that way and both must aim high so as not to hit anybody between them. But I must stop now and take breath. A good long breath is what I wan,. The old woman was asked what disease her husband (liel of and she said the doctors differed about it, but she always believedl he <died for lack of breath. I don't want to go that way. I was ruminating about those physi cians, for doctor is not the proper name. Doctor means a teacher of any thing whether it be science or art or law or pharmacy or theology. Physi cian is the right word. It is a very ancient name for the profession. The Bible tells how Joseph got the physi cians to embalm his old father, but I do not think it was a very popular pro fession among the JIews, for it is meni tioned onily two or three times and1( with doubt,ful favor. Kiflk Aea had a disease in his feet and wo~uld not call upon the Lord for relief, but sent for a physician, and lie died and slept with his fathers. T1hen there was a woman who h.ad had,. an issue of blood for twelve years anid had suffered much from many phiysicins and spent all she had and was nothing bett,er, but, rather gr'ew worse. The Jews unt,o this day do not give much patronage to physicians or qluack mfedlicine. I never knew but one .Jew doctor, though there are a few very eminent ones in the lar'ge cities, for what,ever a learned .Jew (lees ho does well. There is a Doct,or Jacobi m1 New York city who st.and at the head of t,he profession and is cnisuIlt.ed b)y the rich and great 1110n of the nation. Now, let, me stop for another good, long breath. When I was a boy we didn't, have but onie (doctor in the town, and lie weighed 300 p)ound1s and was never in a hiurr'y. IIe left little babies around ever and( 11non1 and1 wvhen one canme to our house our' old cook t,old us where lie got them and she slyly point ed to his corporosit,y. lie 1had( a litt,le office on the stieet and a few shelves wit,h botties oin themi coni,aimniig calo mel, salts and castor oil, senna and cammomile and Peruvian bar'k, balsam of copaib)a, and such simple things, and in the corner was a skelet.on in a box that stood1 uprIght, wit,h a screw In the Bkull, and sometiimes' the little, long door was open and we school children could peelp in and1( then rin for our lives. It, was an awful sight. lint, the old doctor got too 01(1 and fat, t.o prac tice and sent to New York for his nie phiew, D)r. Philo D..Wildman, a st,udent of Valentine .Mott, the great New York physician andl surgeon. He was as smart, as his tut,or and1( went to cutting and sh%shing our people just like killing hogs. 'He 'strightened cross eyes aiid sewed up hare lips and cut stones out of bladilors. T.he agonIzing screams of poor -little John Thompson, my * school mate still haunt, me, for he was simplying dying of stone in the bladder and theo doctor ent1 ,itL.out., 1t was as large te pigeotygg and,the li e boy got wdt*. My brother and Jima O raig attydli undst, Wldman, and~ when they wanted a stiff they .wpuld go out atothe Rtedlarid grave yard in the night. and dIg tipi fresh burled corpse ani'd haul 190t a lit19 room back ~their oft's and 'tut it u~ Atid boll I down and make a skel.ton out of th bones. I went with them one nigh and helped them to dig up a negro but somebody rocked us as we werc taking it out and we had to run for oui lives for they threatened to shoot That satislied mec with the businesi and l never went again. But our little town wasn't big enough for \Vildttan and so he movedl to Co lumbus and made K groat, reputation. About that time the yellow fever visitedt Savannah, and \Vildnan be lioved he could stamp it out and that he was an immune, but, he wasn't. lie took the fever eight. away and died. It is a curious coincimdece that three doctors from our town went to Savan nah to light the fever and every one of them took it and died. liut I was ruminating about the suf foring and agony that the ad vance in surgery and physic has saved mankid and I rejoice that Crawford Laong has been given the first place In the Hall of Fame. I was at school in A thens when his discovery was made, but the magnitude of it was not realh.ed - Itil long after. I was one of the firs, to have a tooth extracted by the use of his lethean. Let mne rest a while, for I am weak and nervous and, as Byron said " My visions ilit less palpably before me." 1 have just enjoyed a good, long let ter from my old school mate, Nathan Crawfor4,of Lincolnton. lie is the honored school commissioner of tho county and will die in harness, I reckon. lHe is in his eightieth year, but we were class mates, for he was one of these sure and slow boys, while I was preocious and uncertain. Only three of us left now, for Tom Alexan dcr is living at Rome. Nathan writes a good, old-fashioned, cheerful letter, and says that he never stole Prank Alexander's watermelons, and hints that it was Overt.on Young and a boy of my name. 'l'he only reason he didn't steal then was that lie boarded with Mr. Alexander and got a plenty without stealing. It is too late now for Imu to assume a saintly morality, for Ton and I still live to testify. But it was a good letter and the memory of Nat Crawford is always comforting ami refreshing. Now, for i good long rest. Bi.t, Aur. TIII; SENATOR 1A14 CARAVAN An Antdience That. 4ook i,Ld ike c' Pntience on n M%ontuntent Scuilig at Grief.'' The Senatorial meeting at Walter boro was held in the presence of a thousand voters. There was no spe cial feature or enthusiasm. The au dience was just like a Sunmlay school picnic crowd, and during the four long hours patiently wailed for the end. Their interest is concentrated in the State campaign, for this is the home of Capt. D. C. Heyward, one of the can didates for Governor, and it was in this same grove that such a cordial ovation was given him not long ago. The candidates had nothing to say about each other. EE.veni Latimer and l'vans se( med to have tempo rarily buried the hatchet, bitt the hall has nol. yet been toh(l. As soon as the up.country is reached the po litical v/olcanoa may break ouit again. The meeting was enlled t.o oarder by Major M. P. Howell, county chuairmaii, who it,roduaced the fi rst speaker, 110n. 1). S. II lnderson..

Mar. Heniderson then passed on to a broad plat.form, where ho was safe from the attacks of his opplonent,s. lie spoke on the trusts, impiIerialisml and1 t,he tariff, ending with a st,rong appeal for a graiid D)emocratic rally in 1904. Col. George Johnstone twit,t.ed Mr. Henderson about being born in Col let,on, but as son as lie could he todl dIed away and wvent to Aikeni andl now ho only comes back hero when lie wants ollIce.

Elliott t,ldl of D>emocratic work, es pecially in the Cuban reciprocity mat ter. IlIe told of his record and the light of his life in redeeming this low.country from negro domination. No one else would undertake the task, for it was regarded as a forlorn hope, and now that victoly is conplOte he turns it over to others and asks that he be sent to the Senate. Ile has never deserted or betrayed his people, andi a man's record is the best way by which the people can judge ia candidate. lion. .J. .J. IlIemphill thinks that the Southern people are laud poor and argued that the United States has neither the right nor reason to.go int.o the colony business. For ' years to come we have enough territi'y here in the 1i1nited States to demand our time and attention, therefore he argued against colonial expansion. Air. llemplhill's jokes proved ro freshing to the hot, weary and patient crowd. IIe closed with an argument agaist, expansion and told of the delusion of Commercial I )omocracv that cane so near getting a foothold in this State. Just before Ex-Governor IKvans be gan his speech the negro band, which was furnishing the music for the day, struck up the old familiar air, " There Will be at Ilot Time in the Old Town,'' and it was wondered if this was pro phetic. But it was not. Mr. ECvans' voice was hoarse from his effort at Charleston last night. His argument was an ingenious one, warning the people against recent con verts and asking their support, because he is a Democrat, and proved this, he claimed, by linding out and denouncing McLaurin's Republicanism. Because he was a watchman on the wall he claimed recognition at the hands of Ss,uth Carolinians. lie told of his trip to Cuba and said that the Spaniards were the only ones on the island who made any pretence to decency. Mr. ECvans mad his tariff rform speech, deeming this the paramount issue before the country. The Trans portion Trust is only excee-led in in iquity by the Virginia-(,arolina Cteim cal Company. South Carolinians must rise up against this corporation or they will be permanently hurt by the com bination. The penitentiaiy is not pay mng, therefore Mr. Evans thinks it hest to turn it into a big fertilizer factory for the bonefit of the State, especially the agriculturist. Mr. Ivans was well received. Mr. I.atimer had laid aside his dress suit. of last evening and appeared in the costume of a prosperous Southern planter. Every two years, he said, the people have candidates conic be fore them and tell them what is wrong with the country, and incidentally ask for votes. After election nothing more is heard of them for two years. lie turned the hands of time backward and told what "t we farmers" did and what "we farmers" accomplished in IMt)2, when the South Carolinians in Congress had to step lown and out, and make room for Reformers, Ile told of his work and the measures accomt plished and advocated by him. What we need is practical business men, not theoretical onles; 1men1 who work and will not, be content, with making flowery sp)eechec. Mr. I,atimer, with apol ogies to Mr. iIemphilil, told his goat story, notwithst.anding t.here were many ladies pr1esent, who blushed and( hid their faces b)ehiind t.heir hands, but laughed just tihe same. What We need in t,his count,ry is eq'ial righlts and equal privileges; the rich will stay rih and the poor poor to thle 01nd of time, bu1t he believes in giving every man an cgnal chaince. A voice: Mr. Latimer, it, is re plorted t.hat you are int.erested in Mex ican mimng stock. [s it, true? Mr. L4atimer: Yes, sir; after Con gress was over 1 had( an offer of Mex icain mininig st.ock at $1 20 a share, and( I acceCptedl the option and it afterward went up t.o $1 40 and( 1 sold out. I made(1 some monoiey on tile (leal1. That is all there is in it.. Iife has always been1 a success wit,h 1me, and( I claim Iliat. I am) 8 successful business man. I never have dealt, in cott.on fut,ures or ally gambling scheme, bult I have worked hard and energetieally and in creased my possessions honestly and honorably. There were 110 further questions. A WVONDlCItFU l4 INVECNTION. Electric Cars Will Travel att the Rato of '400 Miles ian Hour. An elect,ric car which will run at the rate of 400 mile1s an hour over a Irack of p)eculiar consatruction) is on ex hibit,ion at Norfolk, Va. The inlven tor Is Edward J. Kelly, and his past, acccomplishiments in a similar line en tit,le his claims for this maciie to a respetfuil consideration, IIe has in successfuli operation several electric street, ears in Philadelphlia. Ihis p)atent trolley, 81nd1 Lotst of his patent, swit.ch is being made(1, with apparently every pIrospect of success. When at was announced that, lie had a wond(erful railway calr on exhibit,ion great interest was excited among men who are ordmIlarily very shy of inven ions for which large claims are amade. Many of these visitedI the shops of the Norfolk Electrical company, where the deovice is oin view. There the model 1car was being rein back and forth upon the track, wiich wats ab1out sIx feet long. -The inventor dleclared that the Is1eedI at, which ihe car will travel is t restrict,edl onlly to the speed at which electricity travels on a teleg:'aph line, - making allowance for a cert.ain amount of frictios. Ito said he would soon build a long track, and then he would show somnethig of the real speed his car caln attain. It has been his ambition to provide a practical electric car which would travel at a high speed for the purpose of transporting mail matter between the large cities of the country. Ile said: " I believe that this model do monstrates that a car built on these lines will reach a speed ranging from '100 to 400 miles an hour. In other words, it will cover the distance be tween New York and Washington, passing through Philadelphia and Balti more, in one hour." Kelly believes that once his railway is built there will be little telc;raphing been these cities, and nearly all the business will be done by lail. lie ex pects to bring the invention to the notice of the postmaster general short ly, and thinks the government will perhaps undertake to construct the line. Kelly's device is novel. The car is propelled by a magnet attached to it which takes action upon a series of iron plates placed between the rails. These platos are nearly as broad as the gauge of the road at the en:, while they taper to a point at the other end. The sharp ends all point one way, and the car must travel in a direction op posite to the one in which the sharp point of the plates point. The road must, therefore, necessarily be a double-tracked one. The iventor says that it is the na ture of the magnet to reach the large end of the plates as soon as possible, and that it does this almost instantly alter it " smells" tihe small end of the plate. When the magnet beneath the car reaches 1 he broad end of the plate on the track beneat,h it tihe current is automatically cut off by the car wheel until the momentum of the car has carried it a few inches beyond the at traction of the magnet by the plate it has just passed over. '1hon the mag net " enlivens " again and reaches for the attraction plate ahead. " Only ia practical test," he said, " with i full-sized car will solve that problem, though my experiments have convinced nh", thah, the car will travel at the rate of from 300 to 400 miles an hour. The model car Kelly has now on exhilttion is, perhaps, 30 inches long. It is shaped like an ordinary box car, but both ends are sharp. It has four wheels, each as high as its roof. The big wheels, the inventor says will decrease the friction, and the sharp ends of the car will enable it to go faster through tie air. 'Ple next model made will have the Wheels set further toward the cent.er of the car than the first one made has. As the wheels are set on the first model, .they offer some resi stance to t.he air. The current which will propel the car is carried in one rail of the track. This rail is positive, the other is negative. The negative rail is divided at inter vals corresponding to the divisions in the attraction plates between the rails. One wheel of the car on each side of it is insulated from the axle, allowing the current to pass through the con nected wheel to the magnet on the bott.on of the car, and from the magnet t tie connecting wheel on the nega tive side of the car, forming a circuit, except, (luring that, interval whein the circuit, is broken to permit the car t,o jinmp from plat,e to plate. Th'lere Isa ftshort, inlterval between t,he plates as they lie on the t.rack benleathl thle carV. Mr. Kelly said t,hat, in t,ime lie believes passengers will embark on his line, but, they will prob)ably be at fIrst fearful of t,ravehlng at such hlighI speedl. " I will,'' he eaid, '' ride on tile first mail car thlat goes out,. I am not afraid." The inventor is un mnarriedl, was bornl at Woodstock, Ill., April 16, 1872, and has t,wo brothers and1( seven sisters, all living in Illinois and Minnesot,a. Hie ran away from home whlen qjuite young, learined to lbe a mahiist, taas had few advantages ill tile way of schooling, but, has picked up a great deal of knlowledge of elec tricity. The speed of the car may be regulat ed by raisinlg or depressing tile sharp points of the plates on the tiack. Tile car goes slower the more these points are dlepressedl. When the car runs upjonl several plates, t,he ends of which have been reversedl, it st,ops. 'ris is t,he method Kelly will use ill stopping t,he car, lie will at stat,ions reverse a number of the plates, iIe says he will inet,all in si,ations anl indiicator which will show just, whlere t,he car is at all t,imes, lie (hoes nlot believe that tile road will be cost,ly t,o build, lie says tile car will run on the ordinary rail, andl could be0 run over existing imes were one rail alive andl the track clear of tile slower steaml or electric cars.
